We have received the Research Innovation Fund from Cornell Institute of Digital Agriculture to seed the radical collaboration for the development of a human-centered hyperspectral imaging robot for grape disease research, breeding, and management. The project includes experts from engineering (Dr. Yu Jiang), human robot interface (Dr. Qian Yang), grape pathology (Dr. Kaitlin Gold), grape genetics (Dr. Lance Cadle-Davidson), and grape extension specialist (Hans Walter-Peterson).
